Abstract

Abstract A human cannot imagine surviving in the current technological era without software, as software manufacturers focus heavily on creating software that is free of bugs and maintains reliability and compatibility with human activities that depend on software-enabled equipment. One important thing to look into is how the software will function in a random field condition. In this chapter, we develop a generalized software reliability growth model with generalized fault coverage function, considering the effects of random field environment. Two data sets are used, and the computational outcomes of the suggested models and the existing models are compared using the Least Square Estimation (LSE) approach in MATLAB software to show which model performs better. For comparison, the three goodness-of-fit metrics, the root mean square error, R-square, and sum of square error are also employed.
